It seems the race to 2023 Presidential election has started as Pastor Tunde Bakare of the Latter Rain Assembly and Presidential hopeful recently sent out a cryptic jab to “Bourdillon”, the name of former Governor of Lagos State and National leader of All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu’s house neighbourhood.
This cryptic message was sent out during his sermon on Sunday, October 27 where the former running-mate of President Buhari stated that people who say that one is generous after he or she has stolen the money that belongs to a state, are foolish.
In his sermon which was majorly based on 2023 Presidential election, Pastor Bakare affirmed that “some people have been living larger than life since the advent of democracy, having jets here and there, having a house in Bourdillon and other places at the expense of the public”. He insisted that Nigerians crucify their heroes and celebrate villains.
“The eyes of those who see will not be dim. The ears of those who hear will listen. Also, the heart of the rash will understand knowledge and the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly,” Bakare said.
“The foolish person would no longer be called generous. You can say ‘so so and so’ has stolen all the money in the state, but he is a very generous man, you are foolish.
“That’s why potholes are killing you, that’s what pools of water… you can’t drive now anymore because what is meant for road has been stolen since democracy began, they are living larger than life having jets here, having jets there, having house in Bourdillon, having house in this place, having house in that place, having house in every place at the expense of the public.
“You will not go without vomiting what you have stolen. Wait, and see. Because a king will reign in righteousness and princess will rule with justice. Unfortunately, Nigeria people, you celebrate your villains and crucify your heroes” he said.
On the flood in Lagos, Pastor Tunde Bakare said;
“You’re complaining about Flood. Since 1999 the condition of this road for 30 years now since I’ve been here has remained the same. They’ll do patch-patch, join-join, until rain comes and reveal that they have not been right with the people.
“And you think your children will stand shoulder high above the perversity you have created? I see the race to 2023, congratulations Presidential ‘hope-fools’. You cannot, you have stolen what belong to all.
“You can tell the man, he is a very generous man, he would pay for your hospital bill. Because he didn’t build hospitals. The foolish person will no longer be called generous.
“Woe betides the government that does not know that the purpose of government is the welfare of the people” he said.
